26.04 Release - Panel disappears after dragging app into icon task list applet

1

I’m live booting the recently released Ubuntu Budgie 26.04 ahead of upgrading my current install. I’ve added the icon task list applet to the budgie panel.

When I drag an application icon over the task list to pin it, the budgie panel disappears. Pressing the super key displays the budgie panel again. The budgie panel is configured to never hide.

Hi @Sambuca!
I’ve just tried to replicate what you described on a brand-new installation of Ubuntu 26.04, but, sorry, I can’t see that problem.

Hi @jlb

I should have said I’m dragging the app icon from the budgie-menu applet to the icon task list applet.

I suspect this is just a live session issue. I cannot reproduce this on an actual install.

Ok. Thanks.

I’ve included a video link showing the issue I observe. I’ll check again once I’ve actually installed.

cheers for the video - very useful. I can confirm thats the same setup i have here and the same action which I’ve tried.

You said so, @Sambuca and that’s what I did on a real system.
But I honestly couldn’t reproduce the problem.

I can replicate this issue exactly with Budgie on Gardua still. This is not an Ubuntu Budgie specific issue.

edit: Budgie has an issue open for this: [Bug] Bottom panel crash after drag & drop to desktop · Issue #929 · BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop · GitHub

this is one case where someone who has this issue that has to dig into the code to resolve themselves.

At the very minimum debug symbols need to be installed and the crash file needs to be analysed with a full bscktrace to at least see where in the code it is crashing.
